If you want the truth nowadays you need to watch the news events while they happen. I watch c-span quite a bit when something major is on the agenda. You need to read the court documents, the bills passed by Congress or any other trusted factual source.
Otherwise the news media can not be trusted as being factual.

I very much agree with JAP. They report agenda with just enough facts to make it appear real.

NO! Both parties are guilty of uncontrollable lying. It seems to be the norm of late.
